CentOS in VPS Servers

When you obtain one of our VPS server packages, you will see CentOS as one of the Operating System possibilities on the registration page. You'll be able to decide to run either the 32-bit or the 64-bit release of CentOS, determined by the software that you want to install later. In contrast to other Linux distributions, CentOS supports different website hosting Control Panels as well, so you'll be able to pick Hepsia or cPanel, each of which can be installed during the VPS creation, along with web server software, MySQL server software, and so on. When you need a VPS for another purpose or if you need different software on it, you will be able to order your server with no Control Panel and you'll acquire a machine with CentOS and the Apache web server software only. With a CentOS-powered virtual server from our company, you'll enjoy a safe and reliable hosting service for your Internet sites.

CentOS in Dedicated Servers

CentOS is among the Operating Systems that we provide with all our dedicated server packages. Throughout the signup process, you can choose between the 32-bit and the 64-bit release of the OS and ensure that the software environment on your new server meets the specifications of the apps that you wish to install. In contrast to other Operating Systems, CentOS will also allow you to select from a couple of website hosting Control Panels, according to what you need the server for. With Hepsia, for example, you are able to manage the server like a single account irrespective of the number of domains that you host, while with cPanel you'll be able to generate a different account for each domain, which will give you the opportunity to start a web hosting reseller business. In case you don't select any Control Panel, you'll get the server with CentOS only, since the software that comes with the Control Panels won't be installed. We also supply weekly OS updates included in our own Managed Services package, so you won't need to spend time and effort downloading and installing the most recent and most secure software on your dedicated server.
